Have you reached an emotionally challenging point in your life and need a safe, accepting, non-judgmental space where you can safely work through your issues without someone else imposing their own agenda upon you? I have worked successfully with a very diverse group of clients, both individuals and couples, who have benefited from my individualized approach to helping people manage and work through issues of anxiety, trauma, depression, relational issues with partners and family, and a variety of major life transition issues that required careful navigation and thought before proceeding.
My approach to working with clients is tailored to each individual, utilizing a pluralistic theoretical methodology that allows me to address the specific issues the client is seeking to address and work through in a manner that is most comfortable for the person with whom I am working.

I often start therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to develop coping skills to manage the symptoms that are present. This can progress to other therapeutic interventions such as insight-oriented therapy. In certain cases where I think it may be helpful, I utilize clinical hypnosis if other approaches have had limited success.
